QFT - I just bought some bulk pack of LED's off amazon.

I will have to try some other ones I think. But hard to know what the good brands are and what the bad brands are. But something like Philips yeah probably a safe bet if they put their name on it. But if there was like one site that was a known really good LED place, that'd be nice. Like the FP of LED's or something. That Diode Dynamics place you named, are they a known good LED place or just another random site that sells random LED's?

The brand I purchased is pretty well-regarded, both on the forums and Amazon reviews. I actually heard from one guy that tried both the kind I bought and the Philips, and found the Philips to run hotter. Those ones Goodhart linked to sound pretty legit too with the proper heat management properties, and seemed to be priced accordingly.

They use known quality brands like Philips. They also have different options for light output and temperature and explain the different quality levels.
